Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2022123181A1] The invention describes a system that is implantable in a human or animal body, comprising: - a fluidic circuit comprising: - an inflatable element (3) containing a variable volume of a fluid; - a variable-volume fluid reservoir (5) comprising a fixed first part (10) and a movable second part (20); and - an actuator (8) mechanically coupled to the second part (20); wherein the second part (20) is also elastically deformable such that, when the second part (20) is fixed with respect to the first part (10), the second part (20) is designed to be mechanically deformed in response to a variation in pressure in the fluidic circuit, so as to alter the volume of the reservoir (5) in order to compensate for said variation in pressure in the fluidic circuit.
